I love the movie and this article is just flat out funny! In case you didn’t have time to actually read the article and have only read the posts here is the first paragraph:
“The Christmas Eve showing of It’s a Wonderful Life may be intended to make you believe in the importance of even an ordinary persons life, but underneath that, what are the films secret hidden messages, the ones that become apparent only after two or three eggnogs? Lets mull over some of the wackier possibilities.”
GET IT? See the words “two or three eggnogs” Clark? It is your first hint that this is humor. Your second hint, Cousin Eddie, is: “....the wackier possibilities.”.
But then some of you think Grandma Got Runover by Reindeer is truly tragic.
My reply was meant to be at large and not to the poster. Sorry!
